There’s something about Sunday dinner that just hits different.
It’s slower. More intentional. A little nostalgic. It’s not just about the food—it’s about grounding the family before the chaos of the week begins. Around here, Sunday dinner is a whole event and I’m rounding up four must-make recipes that will have everyone licking their plates clean.
From golden, juicy Southern-style baked chicken to the viral Dubai brownies that broke the internet—this spread is all about comfort with a little wow factor. Whether you’re cooking for your family or hosting guests, save this post and come back to it anytime you need a foolproof Sunday dinner menu.
Let’s get into it:
🍗 Southern Baked Chicken
This chicken is baked, not fried—but still hits with all the yummy, seasoned flavor you love. It’s the best form of baked chicken and my favorite way to enjoy Sunday dinner.
🥔 Creamy Mashed Potatoes
Fluffy, buttery, and smooth—these mashed potatoes are made with Yukon golds, warm cream, and just the right amount of salt. No lumps, no fuss—just that classic comfort you need next to your chicken. Trust me, everyone will be asking for seconds.
🥬 Viral Parmesan-Crusted Brussels Sprouts
These are not your grandma’s Brussels. We’re talking tender, cheesy, caramelized perfection. They’re roasted face down on a bed of parmesan until golden and deeply flavorful. They’ve gone viral for a reason—one bite and you’ll see why.
🍫 Viral Dubai Brownies
Fudgy center, crisp edges, and a shiny top layer that looks straight out of a bakery window. Inspired by the famous Dubai café version, these brownies are over-the-top in the best way. If you’ve got a chocolate lover at the table, these will seal the deal.

👩🏾🍳 Pro Tip:
You don’t have to make it all from scratch on Sunday. Prep your potatoes or bake your brownies a day early to keep things low-stress and cozy.
